Re-review
Hello, in re-reviewing Zavojane I have added a needs citations tag because there are seven un-cited paragraphs. I think the notability is borderline as I have not uncovered sources. I also think in adding the tag to the article I have accidentally removed the green review. If you feel it is appropriate you can click the review button again since it was my error.

Thank you
I wanna say thank you for the message you sent earlier. I just moved it to my archives. I haven’t really felt appreciated in here recently over legal threats and people claiming ownership of pages etc. It’s nice to see people on here who appreciate what I’ve done for this website. It means a lot to me. Have a good day my friend. Meep Meep 03:14, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
Page mover granted
Hello, SunDawn. Your account has been granted the "extendedmover" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and moving pages. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a redirect, move subpages when moving the parent page(s), and move category pages.
Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Page mover for more information on this user right, especially the criteria for moving pages without leaving a redirect. Please remember to follow post-move cleanup procedures and make link corrections where necessary, including broken double-redirects when suppressredirect is used. This can be done using Special:WhatLinksHere. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status can be revoked.
Useful links:
- Wikipedia:Requested moves
- Category:Requested moves, for article renaming requests awaiting action.
If you do not want the page mover right anymore, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Thank you, and happy editing! Hey man im josh (talk) 13:19, 19 October 2023 (UTC)
